Sedge Stripe Dishcloth

One of my goals for 2019 is to try my hand at some crochet designing so I've been working on a few dishcloth/washcloth designs as a starting place.  I've actually designed four so far, but this one is my favorite!  It has a nice texture for scrubbing but isn't too thick.  If you try the pattern, please let me know by leaving a comment.  Stay tuned for more fun designs!

Stitches used:  SC, DC, HDC, Chain

Supplies: Size I crochet hook, cotton dishcloth yarn, scissors, yarn needle

Chain 29 (or a multiple of 3 +2),
Row 1: SC in the 2nd from the hook and across.  Chain 2, turn.

Row 3: SC across.   Chain 1, Turn,
Row 4: (Sedge Stitch) (sc, hdc, dc) in the first stitch, [skip 2 stitches, (sc, hdc, dc) in next stitch] repeat until there are 3 stitches remaining, sc in last sc, chain 1, turn
